Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold)
• 0.75 cups Whole milk (cold)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Be careful not to overwork the dough.

Step 4

Create a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the cold milk. Gently fold the ingredients together using a spatula until just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky but avoid overmixing.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 4–5 times until it comes together. Pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.

Step 6

Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a drinking glass, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps and gently re-roll as needed to cut out more biscuits.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool slightly. Serve warm with butter, jam, or your favorite toppings.
